Scaramucci: ‘I’m Working On Being Best Person I Can Be’, LYING About Reason He Was FIRED

Earlier this week, TMZ caught up with our favorite hedge-fund gangster type, former very-short-term White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci, aka The Mooch. And he was coming out of the D.C. Trump Hotel, no less.

In the (reluctant) interview with TMZ, Scaramucci said he’s “working on being the best person I can be,” and sort of implied that he LEFT the White House to allow new Chief of Staff John Kelly space.

The Mooch’s official statement, or rather the White House’s official statement on his departure, more than suggests that he left voluntarily. In fact, they outright lie about it.

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a Monday statement that Scaramucci “felt it was best to give chief of staff John Kelly a clean slate and the ability to build his own team.”

“We are told by our producers, our team, that he was escorted off. That’s not necessarily unusual. If someone is no longer working here, he has no reason to be here. We are told he was escorted off the property earlier this afternoon,” Zeleny relayed. “The question is what happens next?”

Anthony Scaramucci was escorted from White House grounds today after ouster, per source familiar with the scene
